Voice Talent Casting Call

Omilia builds the conversational AI that answers the phone for some of the world’s largest banks, insurers, healthcare providers and utilities. When a customer calls their bank at 11pm, ours is the voice that picks up.

We are casting the voices that will do that job next. Your recorded speech will be used to build a synthetic voice that speaks on behalf of enterprise brands — reading balances, confirming appointments, resolving claims, guiding people through problems.

This is not narration or commercial VO. It is service speech: the register of a calm, competent professional who is genuinely helping someone.

Each locale is cast separately. We are not looking for a generic “European French” or “neutral Spanish” — we cast for the region.

Portuguese — Portugal (pt-PT) · Brazil (pt-BR) French — France (fr-FR) · Belgium (fr-BE) · Canada (fr-CA) Spanish — Mexico (es-MX) · Peru (es-PE) · Venezuela (es-VE) · Chile (es-CL) · Argentina (es-AR) · Uruguay (es-UY) · and all other Latin American locales German — Germany (de-DE) Italian — Italy (it-IT) English — United Kingdom (en-GB) · Canada (en-CA)

For Latin American Spanish, the list above is not exhaustive — we are casting across all Latin American locales and accents. If your country is not named, apply anyway.

We are casting on two tracks: national neutral (the educated broadcast standard of your country) and distinctly regional accents. Both are wanted. Do not neutralise your accent for the sample — record how you actually speak, and tell us where you are from.

All genders, adult age ranges from early 20s upward.

Native speakers only. The accent must be authentically of the region. Talent living abroad is welcome, provided the accent has not drifted.

Bilingual and multilingual talent strongly encouraged. If you can deliver two or more of the above at native or near-native level, say so — it is a real advantage in selection.

• Warm, clear, unforced. Conversational, not announcer-y.
• A voice that is pleasant to hear every day and never draws attention to itself.
• Comfort taking live direction and adapting quickly between characters.

Prior IVR, e-learning, audiobook or voice-AI experience is an advantage, not a requirement. We have cast excellent voices with no professional credits.

Your own studio or professional booth is preferred, but not required. A microphone with a pop filter and a free recording app in a quiet room is enough to be considered. No equipment at all is not a blocker — please still apply and we will arrange.

Round 1 — Short sample. 30–60 seconds in your own voice, on any script you like. Any recording device. We are listening for the voice and the accent, nothing else.

Round 2 — Custom script. Shortlisted talent receive a recording brief with our scripts and characters, plus an optional live coaching session with our voice team.

Round 3 — Directed session. A single remote recording session of roughly one hour, guided end to end by our team. Short scripts, a few takes each. No long or repetitive recording days.

Paid engagement. Fees, licence scope and terms are set out in writing with shortlisted talent before anything is recorded. Samples submitted in Rounds 1 and 2 are used for selection only — never commercially.

Subject “Voice Talent — [your language and region]”, with:

1. Your short sample (WAV only, any script)
2. Your language(s) and where your accent is from
3. Whether you have a recording setup — or not

No cover letter. The sample is what matters. We review on a rolling basis and reply to everyone.

Omilia is an equal opportunity organisation. We cast voices from all backgrounds, ages and genders.
